Lord of Hyranza

Chapter 82 81. Surdak's Bold Plan

In just two days, nearly [-] soldiers of the fourth brigade opened a forest road on the north side of the long and narrow corridor five kilometers west of Moyunling.

The second team came to the easternmost end of the forest road and saw a group of heavy armored infantry soldiers sweating and wielding their logging axes, cutting down 30 meters high birch trees and maple trees.

Oak, oak and yellow pine are rare in the woodland in this area. There are no hard wood trees. The work of opening the forest road is going very smoothly. Intensive logging tasks require soldiers to cut at least twelve hours a day to ensure that they can complete their shared tasks.

It was under the high pressure of Baron Sidney that the Fourth Battalion opened up a 7000-meter-long forest road in just two days.

Seeing that the second team came out of the woodland wearing a leaf camouflage, the heavy armored infantry soldiers who were logging trees showed envious expressions.

A soldier stopped waving the logging axe in his hand and greeted Surdak familiarly:
"Hey, Surdak, how is the situation over Moyunling?"

Surdak walked in front with his head down and saw someone greeting him, he motioned the team to continue along the forest road, he stopped and said to the soldier:
"We found the Goblin Patrol at the foot of Mount Moyunling, Craigie, have you seen Lord Sidney?"

The warrior named Craigie stretched out his hand and pointed forward along the forest road, and said:

"Lord Baron seems to be over there..."

He Boqiang followed behind Surdak, and when he saw Craigie's lazy look, he understood that he was a soldier in the infantry regiment.

Surdak didn't want to talk too much. Before leaving, he said to Craigie: "Even if you chop down trees, you have to be careful, maybe there will be evil spirits running out here at any time. I will report to the baron. The situation there... …”

Before he finished speaking, Surdak wanted to lift his foot and leave.

Unexpectedly, he was grabbed by Craigie.

"Wait a minute, Surdak, for the sake of my fellow countryman, when you see Lord Sidney, ask me if the patrol team still needs manpower..."

With a smile on his face, Craigie said to Surdak.

Surdak responded with a faint smile.

Seeing that Suldak did not agree immediately, Craigie took two steps, grabbed Suldak's arm without letting go, and complained to him:
"I really envy your team's assignment on the street. Look at us, our hands are full of blisters. Every day we wake up, we have to chop down trees until it gets dark. The lumberjacks in the forest farm have no experience. Live this hard life ^"

Surdak stopped and said to Craigie with a serious face:

"Craigie, do you really want to go out on duty?"

With a charming smile on his face, Craigie raised a hand and said:

"Absolutely true, I could swear to the Statue of Liberty..."

Bearded Kagel passed by. As a believer of the Earth Goddess, he heard Craigie say this, so he stopped and asked with a puzzled look:
"Craigie, haven't you always believed in the Earth Goddess?"

Craigie's face sank, and he was speechless with embarrassment.

Surdak glanced at Craigie calmly, and then said: "I will mention this to Lord Sidney, and now there is such a chance, the bottom seventeenth team on duty in the neighboring district just happened to be abused. The Ghost Patrol is gone, and now there is a squad missing in that area, I think Lord Sidney will agree."

Hearing Surdak talking about encountering a demon in the woods, Craigie's face suddenly became very ugly.

He stepped forward, intending to chat with Suldak again, but at this time Suldak had already taken big strides and walked forward.

"Hey, hey! Surdak, please wait a minute, I think we can have a good chat..."

……

Hearing Surdak's report, Baron Sidney quickly gathered the five squadron leaders and held a brief meeting on the newly opened forest road.

Surdak did not have the opportunity to attend this temporary meeting. After the second team carried out a supply, they once again burrowed into the dense forest.

According to Baron Sidney's order, they still have to hold on for two days in the woodland at the foot of the Moyunling Mountain, and at the current logging speed, the fourth brigade will need at least two more days to cross this mountain, and the following The second group converges.

Returning to the monitoring area at the foot of Moyunling Mountain, a large number of messy huge footprints were left in the forest, and no evil spirits were found in the dense forest.

Surdak returned to the battlefield with the soldiers of the second team, and found that in addition to the puddles of blood that could not be concealed on the ground, the corpses of those soldiers had all disappeared without a trace.

The soldiers of the second team returned to the temporary camp. The temporary camp was in the crevice under a huge rock. After tossing for a day and a night, everyone was exhausted. Red socks and a new recruit were sentry, and the other soldiers lay in tents to rest. .

Surdak lay on the hyena skin mattress and couldn't sleep, so he woke up He Boqiang next to him, sat up from the mattress, crossed his legs and said to He Boqiang, "Little Dak, do you think we are killing evil? Ghost abilities?"

He Boqiang didn't understand a little at first, but when he heard the word "evil ghost", he was more awake.

Surdak turned around and took in the leather package hanging outside the tent, unwrapped the package, and there were four heads of sacrifice-level monsters inside, but the weather was a little hot, and these heads were only treated with simple antiseptic treatment, so the heads were on the head. Exudes a faint smell of corruption.

"Can you use these sacrifices to give us stronger abilities?"

He Boqiang nodded.

"I'd like to try it out, hunting the lone evil spirit on the patrol..."

He Boqiang stared at Surdak and found that he didn't seem to be joking.

"Do you think this idea is okay?"

Surdak asked in a low voice.

He Boqiang nodded, then picked up two beast heads, dragged Surdak to the outside of the tent, and immediately laid down the magic circle required for the 'sacrifice ceremony'.

"Hey, little Duck, shouldn't the sacrifice ceremony be held before the battle?"

He Boqiang said in his heart, how could it be too late!
He waved his hand at Surdak, indicating that there is absolutely no need for this.

After laying down the magic circle required for the ceremony, He Boqiang stood in the center of the magic circle and recited a prayer in his heart. A demon god phantom appeared in front of He Boqiang. This time, He Boqiang sacrificed two beast heads to the demon god phantom. The product, as the sacrifice glowed in the flames, a force poured into He Boqiang's body.

He Boqiang continuously recited in his heart:

'Blessed Body'

'Shield of Blessing'

Two golden beams of light descended from the sky, covering the body of Suldak, who was at a loss. Some golden runes in the beams of light were printed on Suldak's body, causing a faint six-pointed star to rise under his feet...

After giving Surdak two kinds of buffs, the divine power pouring into He Boqiang's hands did not completely dissipate.

So He Boqiang tried to wipe it on his chest, a golden beam of light enveloped his whole body, and instantly He Boqiang felt the power of the 'Blessed Body' again.

Surdak seemed to feel the power. He stretched his arm and asked He Boqiang excitedly, "How long will this effect last? The effect of the Eye of Reality will not last long."

He took out the Roman sword from his waist and swung it vigorously twice. The strength filled Surdak's body, and when he swung the long sword, there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Seeing He Boqiang stretch out three fingers, Surdak said eagerly:
"You mean that the magical effect of the ritual can last for three hours? Do we need to find a single ghost as soon as possible?"

He Boqiang shook his head and stretched out three fingers again.

Surdak asked half-jokingly, "Did I guess wrong? If the duration is not three hours, could it be three days?"

Before Suldak finished speaking, He Boqiang nodded to Suldak...

Surdak looked at He Boqiang with a dull expression, and swallowed all the words that followed.

……

Note:
The function of 'Blessed Body' is to increase one's own physique in an all-round way.

The function of 'Blessed Shield' is to add magical power to the shield, which can absorb impact and increase the blocking effect.
